TRADE PINES FOR PORTLAND
lakan Say Seattle Method Are
'Holdup' Steamer Xeeded.
'
C. R. Podson. a prominent mining
man and merchant of Circle. Alaska,
who Is In the city, yesterday censured
Portland severely for making no effort
to secure the Alaskan trade.
It said Alasksns were disgusted
with Seattle methods, which he termed
a ""hold-up." and that merchants of
Alaska do much better by going to
San Francisco. He saw no reason,
however, why the Alaska people should
go so far South, when they could carry
on business much more advantageously
with Portland, nearer home, he de
clared. Conditions." he said, "are rip for
Portland to get the Alaska business,
and to keep It forever. V bellev
that Portland Is going to wake up
pretty soon to the extent of the pres
ent opportunity. We want to do busi
ness with Portland because we are
sure ef better treatment. Ail that Is
necessary for a beginning Is to run a
couple of steamers, and to advertise
" the fact. Previous efforts bave failed
because of a lack of advertising."

Mrs. Minnie Hamilton, an elderly wom
an, was found by Patrolman i!ll at the

ailments. aewrravated by moral and
physical decline and otter lack of funds.

ter day a The obligation bM him
strongly and for weeks he had been
caring for her out of bis slender mean
In an effort to pay the debt.
Mrs. Hamilton was until a few years
agoXthe wife of a railroad employe and
a woman of good repute. After being
divorced she took to wayward paths
that led to th sickbed In a slum hotel.
GUI found that men of th derelict
class had been carrying her liquor,
and arrested Pan Putnam and Walter
Noble, whom he found In her room.
Putnam was fined 114 and Noble was
sentenced to serve 1 days on ths rock

WOMAN'S TESTIMONY HOLD
Landlord SeJsed a Parasite, Tne to
Erldenre' Wltne Give.
Revelations made by a woman of 111
repute in a case In the Municipal Court
recently, led to th Issuance of a war
rant yesterday for the arrest of Jacob
Ku trier, proprietor of a North-End
rooming-house, charging him with con
tributing to the causes of th woman's
degradation. Out of the case, say th
police, are llkery to grow development

several of like character before It, and
accepted a share of her money, Si

when she did not act to his satisfac
tion. Kutner Is now under Indictment for

RETAILERS WOULD EXPAND
Portland Merchant' Association to
Secure 600 Members.
Laying the groundwork for a larger
and more comprehensive organisation,
the Portland Retail Merchants' Asso
ciation at a special meeting Friday nlgbt
amended the constitution, so that here
after the association will be governed
by a committee consisting of one mem
ber from every line of business repre
sented in the association.
This is In line with a movement.
which the association Is starting to
enlarge th membership to at least SOS.
At present the association, while com
posed of the leading merchants of th
city. Is not deemed large enough. With
the anticipated enlargement of the as
sociation, the system now In vogue
wonld be found too cumbersome.
The campaign to enlarge the mem
bership will be begun Immediately.
"There are '00 retail merchants ln'tbe
city." said W. B. Shively, secretary of
the association, yesterday, 'and, we
will not rest satisfied until wa have a
membership of at least MO." A man
win be appointed at once to manage
the campaign at a salary of S2o0 a
month, with a contract for six months.
After that tiro he may be retained at
the option of the association. Mr.
shively announced yesterday that be
would probably make final arrange
ments with a man to do the work soma
time tomorrow.
POLICE CASE APPEALED
Kx-Serfeant Cole Declare He Was
Discharged Illegally.
Alleging that the Executive Board
discharged Mm from the police depart
ment without authority and without
cause. Sergeant E. W. Cole filed an ap
peal yesterday with the Civil Service
Commtaslon. Cole. In a written appeal,
says the Executive Board had no
Jurisdiction In his case, that the hear
ing was not conducted in accordance
with rules snd regulations adopted by
the Board and alleges that the evidence
adduced did not warrant dismissal
from the service.
Cole was suspended by the Mayor
for Inefficiency and a hearing wa held
more than a month later. Cole con
tends that he should have been given a
hearing within SO days and that failure
on th part of the Executive Board to
give him the hearing resulted In dis
missal of the charges and reinstate
ment In the service. He also maintains
that he was to be heard on a charge
ef Inefficiency and instead the evi
dence pertained only to grart charges
which were brought against him sub
sequently. POSTAL BANK OPEN NIGHTS

4t waa reported yesterday that at
torneys for the JIarrunaa roads had
prepared the papers nsosssary to
request In the rsderal Court aa In

roads. W. W. Ootton, chief counsel tor the
O.-W. R. a N. Company, said last
alsht that be bad no actual knowl
edge of the preparation of th pa
pers, having been absent from the of
fice for several days, but that an In
junction would naturally be sought
by the eompaay should the striker
attempt serious tnterfsrenoe with the
company's business. ...,'

eight days as a result of refusal of
the company to recognise the em

Accommodation equal to those In a
modern hotel are being Installed at
both shops In Portland. Bathrooms
have been fitted up. a buffetcar has
been run Into the Alblna yards In which
a smoking-room Is provided for the
men. They also have a lounglng-room
and ample rest quarters.
Th appetites, aa well as the com
fort of th man, will ba amply cared
for while they remain th guests of
ths company. Professional cooks hav
been placed on duty at both shops.
Both quality and quantity are kept In
mind when food is purchased. The fare
at the carshopa Is said to be far super
ior to that at th average boarding
house. All these things, the strikers say. are
Intended merely to deceive the unwary
workingman. None of their number
has been deceived, ther declare. A few
desertions have been reported, but the
striking forces virtually remain firm.

the onion men, they say. Th strikers
also declare that the standard of work
manship among th present staff of
employes Is far below that of the men
who are out and that consequently the
company art!! not get good results.
"We don t care how elaborately tney
fix up their hotel. ". said a striker yes
terday. "That will not cause as to go
back."
Reports from every point in the
Northwest indicate that the strikers
are standing together loyally. Trou
ble has been averted everywhere. Tne
police have heard several complaint of
attempted violence, but Investigation
proved them to be groundless.
One man was arrested yesterday roar
or five blocks from the Alblna shops.
The fact that be wa a striker 1 con
sidered by the police to be merely a
coincidence. He was charged with
drunkenness. He had made no effort
to harm anyone.
.Many men who failed to receive their
pay at the shops on Friday called at
the general offices In the Wells-Fargo
building yesterday and were paid. Trie
company will continue paying Its old
men until all have received their

clares that strikers or their sympathis
ers are responsible for this deed.' The
union men state that none of their
number Is guilty and that ths trick
could not hav been done outside the
shops. They say that someone Inside
the fence or company agents them
selves did it for the purpose of di
recting suspicion against the strikers
and creating public sentiment in oppo
sition to them. e
"I am certain no one In mir organlsa-
tlon is guilty of that deed," said C R
Merrlll, a member of the federation's
advisory board. "We hav held meet
ings at which the Importance of re
fraining from violence and destruction
of company property was impressed
upon every man. Our members all
know that nothing is to bo gained by
resorting to conduct of this kind and
that as soon as we start this kind of

us. We now have public sentiment
with us and so long as we retain it
we are sure of success."
